See in the New Year on a Sociable Walking Holiday

If you’d rather swap party crowds for countryside, and confetti for crisp walks and good conversation, our New Year’s Eve walking holidays could be just the thing.

Join Large Outdoors for a friendly, fully guided escape over the New Year break. You’ll enjoy relaxed walking, warm hospitality, and a small group of like-minded people – perfect for solo walkers or anyone looking to start the year with fresh air and new connections.

Each of our four trips offers something a little different – from coastal stays to mountain villages – but all include guided walks, shared meals, and a relaxed way to mark the turning of the year.
